Sara Susan Nolan

Sara Susan Nolan (25 December 1843 – 6 March 1927) was an English born temperance reformer in Sydney, Australia.

She had joined the Woman's Christian Temperance Union (WCTU) in Brisbane but it was in Sydney that she became branch and later state and national President from 1906 to 1912.

In 1885 they were living in Brisbane where she and her husband took an interest in the Woman's Christian Temperance Union.

Nolan bore a resemblance to Frances Willard and this may have assisted her rapid election as the branch President in 1893.

[2] Nolan supported the idea that women should gain the influence of having a vote but, in her opinion, this was to allow them to elect the best men.
